Yet again, the fever of selfie has taken another victim. Just like the previous article on Jared Michael who got kicked by a train driver when he posed for a selfie near a train, this time, the bad luck is on the side of a Mexico city guy.

We do not know what exactly inside the head of this young man. Because of his desire to look cool, he posed himself with a gun pointing on his head while taking a selfie. Unfortunately, the gun was blown and the poor guy was dead not long after.

This unbelievably ridiculous and tragic event happened at the north part of the Mexican city. The victim was called Oscar Otero Aguilar who was just 21 years old at that time. Before this sad incident took place, the victim and his two buddies went out for drinks. Possibly, in his not so sober state, Otero wanted to take a photo of him himself to be posted on Facebook. He pointed a pistol to his own head and posed with it. But unluckily, he unconsciously pulled the trigger and shot his own head and his life came to an end.

“I heard the sound of a shot and someone screamed and then I realized there was someone got injured then I directly called the police and when they came, he was still alive” said the victim’s neighbor, man Fredo Paez. But, then Otero died in the scene not long after because of the terrible gunshot wound that he suffered. People concluded the death as pure accident.

This guy was considered as a loyal user of Facebook and had been very active in it. On several photos he posted, he appeared to be very close to alcohols and drinks.
